Modern Languages

Learning a new language opens doors around the world. In addition to classroom instruction with our top-notch faculty, you’ll learn in our multimedia language center, which offers independent study in over two dozen languages and is staffed by bilingual students who offer one-on-one tutoring in Spanish, French, and Hebrew, just to name a few.

Of course, true language acquisition comes from more than rote memorization. You can sharpen your skills by joining language-based student organizations for group projects, dinners, and everyday conversation in your chosen tongue. And Ithaca's numerous exchange programs and academic affiliations offer plenty of opportunities to put your new linguistic talents to the test around the world.
